Would you be somewhat better protected i.e. (not loosing private keys, etc) if your machine sat behind a load balancer ? The memory exposed would be that of the load balancer correct ?

Depends on if the LB was doing the SSL termination (offload).
But still, the private keys are at risk. There are worse scenarios, but just barely.
You were using [EC]DHE cipher suites, weren't you?
Its only a development environment so my risk is fairly low, However I was just curious, its an Amazon ELB.
